As a result, there is a critical need to create new pathways for biofuel conversion that reduces carbon waste, prevents the loss of CO 2 emissions, and in turn, maximizes the amount of renewable fuel a conversion process yields. A Microbial Consortium Enables Complete Feedstock Conversion - $1,574,966.00.

Conversion kits also will be available to switch medium-duty gasoline vehicles to run on propane. PERC estimates that operating costs of a propane fleet typically range from 5 to 30% less than a gasoline-powered fleet, when capital costs (vehicle and infrastructure) and operation and maintenance costs are all taken into consideration.

Success could ultimately drive commercial development of solar-fuel systems designed from inception to be easily deployable almost anywhere. The research program involves eight core projects: Light Capture and Conversion. This project focuses on the discovery and development of semiconducting materials for solar light absorption.

Proposed by John Heywood and colleagues at MIT in 2005, the basic premise of E85 boosting is that ethanol (or other lower alcohols) suppresses knock due to the large evaporative cooling effect it has on the air-fuel mixture when injected directly into the cylinder, supplemented by ethanol’s inherent high octane number.
